Curtis completed four of seven passes for 61 yards during the drive. Carpenter Blocks Kick Don Carpenter rushed through to block Harold Pollard’s extra point try. Keith’s conversion try was wide after the Fish touchdown. Both teams made 12 first downs, and only seven yards separated the clubs in total offense. The Fish gained 193 yards rushing and 32 passing for a total of 225 yards. The Wogs had 144 yards rushing and 88 passing for 232 yards. Keith was the game’s leading ball carrier with 85 yards on 15 carries. Fullback Jack Pardee drove for 73 yards in 20 tries and played a fine game at linebacker on defense. Fullback Henry Crowsey picked up 41 yards in 13 carries for the Wogs. Curtis completed four of eight passes for 69 yards. Rand Replaces Scott Glenn Rand, a polished little ball- handler from Groesbeck, replaced Charles Scott at quarterback in the first quarter when Scott was hit hard after he had gotten away a punt. Rand’s slick faking and play calling paved the way for Pardee and Keith. A 63-yard march by the Fish in the fourth quarter was stopped on the Wog eight-yard line.' The drive started from the Fish 29 af ter a punt and carried for four first downs and 15 plays. Pardee got 23 of the yards.

Curtis Completes Three Curtis threw for 12 yards to James Swink on the first play. A pass in the flat to Crowsey gain ed 16 to their 48. Crowsey and Swink picked up a first down on the Fish 41. A 14-yard pass from Curtis to Royce Whitely put the ball on the 24. After two incomplete passes and a five-yard off-side penalty, Curtis passed to Miles behind Scott in the end zone. Early in the second quarter the Fish were pushed back to their five-yard line on a punt by Ken Wineburg. Three line bucks picked up a first on the 17, then Pardee broke off tackle for 14 yards on two tries. From the 31, Keith took a handoff from Rand, burst over right guard, cut left and outran the secondary to the goal line.

Two pass es from the 18 were incomplete af ter a first down had been made on the 19-yard line. Dick Munday, James Martin, Bennie Bloomer, Bobby Lockett and Eugene Stalling stood out in the line for the Fish.

Here are this week’s predictions: A&M over TCU. SMU over Rice. Arkansas over Texas. Baylor over Vanderbilt. The Aggie-Horned Frog game might draw the largest crowd that has ever seen a football game in Fort Worth. Newly-enlarged Amon Chrter stadium now seats 37,000, and interest in the Frogs after their great effort against Michigan State should reach a new high for the season. Might Be High-Scoring This game might turn into a high-scoring offensive battle, in spite of the low scores prevailing in previous Aggie games. TCU showed last week that it has a fine offense. Ray M.cKown and Malvin Fowler give’ the Frogs a great one-two punch at quarter back. Ron Clinkscale is a fine breakaway runner. A&M has one of the great de fensive lines in this area. And it is the line that should make the difference in this one. Don Ellis, keeping his, throwing arm under wraps against Texas Tech, should 'and will probably open up Satur day. We look for the Aggies to play their best game of the sea son, and hope we don’t put the “whammy” on them. Rice, the preseason choice for the title, takes on a Mustang team that has shown tremendous possi bilities under a new coach. The Mustangs have the best defensive record in the country, giving up just 266 yards in their two games. Rice has an offense that is seventh in the country in rushing and 12th in total offense. We look for SMU, led by Jerry Norton and Frank Eidom, to edge the Owls in a thriller. Sophomore Charles Brewer has been elevated to the starting* quar terback spot at Texas. But Brew er doesn’t have the experience re quired of a college quarterback. Arkansas appears on the way back to sectional prominence under new coach Bowden Wyatt. The Hogs put up a tremendous fight against Baylor. Now that they know they can play on even terms with the top teams, the Hogs should be plenty tough. And don’t forget Lamar McHan. A solid vote for Arkansas in an upset. Baylor 20 Point Choice Baylor has been made a 20 point favorite over an erratic Vander bilt team in the conference’s only intersectional game. The odds- makers seem to have forgotten Bill Krietemeyer, the sensational young Commodore passing star. He passed for 999 yards last year as a freshman. After a hard game last week against Arkansas and with the important A&M game coming up next week, the Bears don’t figure to play one . of their best games. Baylor to win, in a close, high- scoring offensive battle.

A crowd of 13,000 is .expected to watch Baylor wind up its inter sectional schedule for the year. Baylor has brushed off Califor nia, Miami and Arkansas so far this season. Vanderbilt has been beaten by Penn, Alabama and Mississippi. One reason why Baylor’s a big favorite: Baylor beat California, 25-0; Penn beat Vanderbilt, 13-7; California beat Penn, 40-0. Kittens Play Tie Game With Hearne A&M Consolidated Kittens were held last night to a 6-6 tie by Hearne. The Kittens, out-weighed and out-numbered, moved inside the Hearne 10 yard line four times but could score only once. Hearne scored early in the game on an 85-yard end run. The Kittens came back and scor ed a minute before 1 half-time on a drive climaxed by a one-yard scor ing dive by Billy Kavanaugh. Consolidated drove to the eight with two minutes left in the game, only to be stopped short of a touchdown. A pass from Edgar Feldman to Virgil Arnold was good for 60 yards in this drive.
